Dean of Academic Affairs & Student Services
The Dean of Academic Affairs & Student Services oversees both the academic and student services division, including discipline, academic probation, and suspension. The dean’s office is located on the second floor in Room E229. To schedule an appointment, contact the dean’s administrative assistant at 860-932-4121.

Registrar/Student Records/Transcripts
Transcript requests can be made through a student’s myCommNet account. Both official eTranscripts (electronic) and paper transcripts are available. eTranscripts can be sent to educational institutions, potential employers or any other appropriate entities, and are processed within 24 hours of receipt of the request. Paper transcripts are processed within 7 to 10 business days. Transcripts issued to students are classified ‘unofficial. Current students may access their “unofficial” grades and order a transcript on the web at my.commnet.edu. Former students who have been away from QVCC for more than two years and no longer have access to myCommNet, should utilize Parchment to request a transcript.

We do not accept e-mail, fax or phone requests for transcripts.

Any outstanding library or financial obligations to the college will prevent issuing of transcripts.

Effective July 1, 2008, there is no charge for official transcripts.
